Connectors pinout[edit | edit source]

The following section describes the on-board connectors and their pinout.

Power supply[edit | edit source]

Power is provided through the JP2 DC Power Jack. Power voltage range is [12-24 V]

CPU module connectors – J1, J2[edit | edit source]

J1 and J2 are the 140-pin mating connectors for the hosted SOM.

UART1 - J4[edit | edit source]

UART2/CAN - J5[edit | edit source]

J5 is a standard DB9 male connector for the configurable UART/CAN port. The board provides some hardware mount options for the selection of the UART mode (RS232/RS422/RS485 with auto-direction) or the CAN mode. The board default configuration provides the CAN interface on this port, while the RS232/RS422/RS485 interface is provided as an option to customers who choose the alternative configuration.

Please note that this port can be used to connect a Bluetooth serial adapter powered by the 5V_BT signal.
